I hope you don't mind , but I thought I would take some photos and share some of your work over the next few days...and I will try and get everyone's cards,,.( as I would hate to leave anyone off as that can be really upsetting )

I am going to try and post a pyrography tutorial ....fingers crossed that it works after many failed attempts to post photos yesterday...

I think the naughty Christmas elves are having a laugh at my expense!!!!

This is a chopping board that I made for Barbara using the wonderful Jayne Nestorenko floral stamps...

I started by stamping the design onto the wood using Vintage Sepia VersaFine ink and then I just burnt in the design....this is so relaxing,,,

Next , I introduced some colour using the Fresco Transclucent paints. Now this is going to be a decorative board, if it was going to be used for kitchen use I wouldn't add any colour...( elf and safety )

To finish off I added some clear Wink Of Stella, these pens are fabulous and work really well on wood...
